Why Water is Important for Sustaining Normal Cellular Functions and Blood Volume

- MEDICAL ANIMATION TRANSCRIPT: The body's fluids are a mix of water, acids, bases, and dissolved substances known as solutes. The majority of solutes in the extracellular fluid are electrically charged particles called electrolytes. Sodium is one of the most abundant electrolytes. In order to sustain normal cellular functions and blood volume, these elements are maintained within a narrow range in a process called homeostasis. The sodium concentration in blood plasma called serum sodium indicates sodium and water distribution and healthy blood volume. Normal serum sodium is maintained at 135 to 145 milliequivalents per liter. However, a serum sodium measuring less than 135 milliequivalents per liter is known as hyponatremia. The most common type of hyponatremia is dilutional hyponatremia, which involves excess extracellular water relative to sodium concentration. For instance, profuse sweating causes the loss of water, sodium, and other solutes through the skin. In response, thirst is stimulated, and water intake increases, sometimes in excessive amounts. Excess water entering the extracellular fluid in the bloodstream without sodium dilutes the sodium levels in the blood and can lead to dilutional hyponatremia. Likewise, in chronic kidney disease, the kidneys lose the ability to adequately filter the appropriate amount of fluid and waste products from the blood. This abnormal process dilutes blood's sodium levels and leads to water retention in the interstitial spaces. In an attempt to restore water and electrolyte balance, extracellular water moves into cells. The cells swell resulting in damage and the inability to function normally. Treatments for hyponatremia include water restriction, which allows the excess water to move via osmosis from the cell back into the extracellular fluid, administration of hypertonic saline solution, a fluid with a higher sodium concentration than normal extracellular fluid that returns blood sodium to normal levels, and antidiuretic hormone inhibitor medications that help the kidneys retain electrolytes while increasing water excretion in urine. ♪ [music] ♪

I work medicine and also training running! The water is really important for metabolism and human health! Biology is the best science ever! Brilliant video
Ever heard about physics the god of sciences
Psychology. Learn how humans work. That above all.
Brilliant 3D animation video, love from Pakistan 🇵🇰
Excelente vídeo. Belas imagens e uma boa narração. Obrigado
Very important for everyday's life
Bio-chemistry is way to know physiology and chemical process
As a doctor studying to get into residency, these videos are so much help! They definitely help us remember those basic topics. Sometimes we study so hard deeper in the subjects that we forget the basics… awesome 3d btw! Love from brazil 🤍
Love From India 🇮🇳 ❤

Im 29 next week and since I was born I’ve never willingly drank water unfortunately. I do force myself and it’s a struggle 🙏 I know the importance but it’s still a struggle
Very informative
Isnt this video more explaining the importance of elctrolyte balance, if im mistaken its explaining how the body loses sodium through sweating and drinking regular water wont cure it because its missing the sodium, hence when it become a conditon you have the drip to directly infuse sodium and therefore electrolytes in to the blood for proper functioning, hence the anti deuretics to ensure that the kidneys keep hold of any sodium coming in
Am i wrong or mislead??

Hello, I had a cerclage, will it be difficult for me to have a natural birth because I am not active?
Интересно! 👍 👍 👍 👍
How come anti-diuretics increasing water excretion in urine !
Your short film couldn’t have come at a better time. The doctor diagnosed me with hyponatremia. After repeated blood tests, my salt level was a little low. In fact, it was found that my salt level was a little low a few years ago. Every time I am advised to drink less water. But the weather in our country is getting hotter and hotter, so I drink more water. I really do not know what to do ? What it caused me tireness , and i am afraid of coma .
im no doctor, but maybe try cooling off in ways that arent drinking water like a cool towel or fan? or maybe keep salty foods on hand like crackers
try drinking electrolytes water than regular water
@@Zvino_ tks, very kind of you. . Will try.❤
I had a lot of problems drinking water as I always forget to drink water but nothing relates to these issues. My issue is constipation and anal fissure.
Our hole body fully made of 80% watery fluid so its needed, you not intake water the problem you face kidney stones and solid stools excreated its way to rectum removal also etc...
You need water in the body to lubricate fecals
@@vteditz78 I drank one bottle everyday but I drank 1.5L pepsi everyday. I realized it was stupid to drink pepsi, I had immense anxiety problems and drinking pepsi or coke calms me down. I do not do that anymore now but I still drink pepsi now and then. I am now trying to drink the recommended amount of water 👍
@@Gancrothor-II oh i also drink per one coc but i now stoped there is some problem what anything take excessely
did that fissure occure naturally?
ICED. COFFEE.
Why your accent has changed?
Me at 3 am drinking water Be like:
lol
is this true?
Drinking Water with Negative (-200) ORP and 8 to 9 pH has tonns of health benefits...
I’ve been drinking solely Coke Zero for 3 years now.
😮 wow
Please turkish Subtitle
soduim is salt
